Jim was one of my dearest friends. How lucky I was to know him for 42 years. Not many people keep friends that long. Although he may be physically gone from us, he'll always be present in my heart.

Jim and I met as performers in the 1975 Philadelphia Gridiron Show, when I was a writer/reporter at WPVI-TV. We loved singing, dancing and laughing our way through the show that poked fun at local politicians.

Even though I moved on to other TV markets, Jim and I stayed in touch. We could talk about anything; his clever, chatty e-mails always made me laugh out loud. He knew my extended family still in the Philadelphia area. We constantly suggested favorite books to each other.

Living in Colorado now, I arranged a special reunion trip to Philadelphia this summer for lunch and great conversation with Jim - and Janice! I'm so glad that I didn't delay. That experience will be forever precious.

My condolences to the family and friends of Jim. I met him in Italy while an officer in his company. I also was a journalism major and appreciated his contributions to the field, plus his concise and witty pieces for our unit's web site.
